What brand and model of serger do you have? Maybe someone here has one like it and can advise you.
One thing I know is that sergers are very picky about the order in which you thread them. Do you have the manual? Or perhaps your serger has the threading diagram printed on it? To thread you have to remove all of the threads and start from scratch with #1.
Sergers are also very unforgiving if you miss one of the threading holes or do something else not "just so". There are a few brands/models of sergers that are just awful even when threaded correctly; however, most are pretty good when everything is just the way they like it.
